Back in time, groovy car, parents in high school, playing guitar, yada yada yada...
It's extremely fun.
But two things continue to bug me.
1) Instead of having to time it so that the Delorean hits the wire at precisely the right time, while driving at exactly 80 miles per hour, why not just prop the back wheels up on blocks so that they can spin at the right speed while Marty sits patiently in the correct spot? (And no, "it's not dramatic enough" is not a good reason.)
2) Given that the clock tower doesn't have a second hand, how did they figure out the exact moment that the lightning bolt is going to hit it?

Awww... CUTE!
Sep. 25th, 2009 05:11 pmI spent my train ride home entertaining myself by watching a teeny pair of legs.
The legs were, in fact, attached to a little girl who was about one year old, but I couldn't see her. The pram was blocking view of everything except her legs.
...which were the cutest little legs I've seen in a while.
She kicked them in the air and hummed, and then she swirled them round in circles, and then she started seeing if she could catch them on the top of the pram cover, and then she held them up and started using her teeny tiny fingers to fiddle with her shoes.
I almost died of squee-ing!
